Im thinking no on both of them, but I dont have any experience with the 2nd one.

The first link is seaclone and well many people here can testify to their garbage... and I have no idea on the bottom one but to me it doesnt look particularly amazing and its pretty cheap.

Why do you need a skimmer for the 10? Just curious.

 

[ram man]

its goign to have 1 prawn goby(preferably yasha haze) 1 pistol shrimp, and a cleaner shrimp. let me know if any of these are good brands.

you dont need a skimmer for the 10 gallon, even with the proposed bio load...just feed on the light side and be diligent with water changes...frankly any of those skimmer would look silly on a ten gallon, and might not even physically function. The seaclone is bad, the skilter is too. Redsea I have heard mixed things about, and the coralife is good once you get it fine tuned.

ramman- I bought this for my 10 gal. I know it wasn't necesary but I wanted to check out a protein skimmer and its inexpensive. Overall it really doesn't do that much. lol. but it was only around $30. so no harm done.

Check out how much salt you can get for the money spent on a skimmer, and change 5 gallons every week. Easy

i personally had good success with the second one...umm...no bigger then a 20 gallon tank. If your lookin for a smaller skimmer try a backpack by cpr or a remora by aqua c
